The SW Winter Line was a Survival Railway Network branch line in the southwest region of the Survival 3 world. It was intended to link up the southwestern areas of the server to encourage development of this quadrant which was perceived to be lesser in population.

History

The SW Winter Line was first conceived by 20.png expedtadam after he noticed that the southwestern area of the SRN map was noticeably empty. To make the southwest of the server more connected, expedtadam drew plans showing hypothetical links to locations on the map. The project was largely inspired by the NW Avalanche Line and the developmental roads of outback Australia.


Stations

Relleka-Meander

Holiday station location
Holiday Station

Holiday Station was originally a planned station connecting Relleka and Jello stations. It was expected to be a viewing platform in Holiday City's winter area. However, due to time constraint, its location only served as a scenery changing point between Relleka and Jello Station.



Jello station
Jello Station

Located in a swamp area, Jello station had its surroundings transformed into a beach, the slime beach. It was an underground station embedded in Holiday City's summer area. Travelling from Relleka station and passing through the snow biome, the rail changed from wooden to glass, mimicking a ride through air. There were colorful hot air balloons accompanying the travel. It was built by 20.png StenLLuk .

Meander Station
Meander Station

Built by expedtadam, Meander station was inspired by open air marshland dwellings. Additional help for the station came from maltj465. The name of the station was derived from the winding natural terrain generation similar to meanders and billabongs. South of Meander, on the line to Cloud Station, was a musical railway which played Bach’s Crab Cannon from "The Musical Offering" built by 20.png expedtadam.
